      <title>FO rejects CBS report on Iranian aircraft as misleading</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330458832/fo-rejects-cbs-report-on-iranian-aircraft-as-misleading</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pakistan on Tuesday categorically rejected a report published by US-based CBS News regarding the presence of Iranian aircraft at Nur Khan Airbase as “misleading and sensationalised.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Such speculative narratives appear aimed at undermining ongoing efforts for regional stability and peace,” Foreign Office spokesperson Tahir Andrabi said in a statement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He said that following the ceasefire and during the initial round of the Islamabad Talks, a number of aircraft from Iran and the United States arrived in Pakistan to facilitate the movement of diplomatic personnel, security teams, and administrative staff associated with the talks process.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some aircraft and support personnel remained temporarily in Pakistan in anticipation of subsequent rounds of engagement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He said that although formal negotiations have not yet resumed, senior-level diplomatic exchanges have continued.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In this context, visits by the Iranian foreign minister to Islamabad were facilitated through the existing logistical and administrative arrangements, he added.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The spokesperson said that the Iranian aircraft currently parked in Pakistan arrived during the ceasefire period and bear no linkage whatsoever to any military contingency or preservation arrangement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Assertions suggesting otherwise are speculative, misleading, and entirely detached from the factual context.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He highlighted that Pakistan had consistently acted as an impartial, constructive, and responsible facilitator in support of dialogue and de-escalation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In line with this role, Pakistan has extended routine logistical and administrative support where required, while maintaining full transparency and regular communication with all relevant parties.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Spokesperson Andrabi reiterated that Pakistan remained committed to supporting all sincere efforts aimed at promoting dialogue, reducing tensions, and advancing regional and global peace, stability, and security.&lt;/p&gt;
